Waxing Lyrical

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I was very much interested in indulging in a little wax play having enjoyed the sensation of warm melted wax dripping on to my hand from a candle.  The warm caress of the molten wax on my skin is something I really desire to indulge in.

And over the past few weeks I have been consulting with my fellow readers here on the blog, friends on MyDungeonSpace and reading up bits here and there on the Internet.  And the general consensus seemed to be that the best type of wax for this kind of kinky play is paraffin wax because it has a low melting point.

There was conflicting advice as to whether the addition of colouring or perfume agents increased the melting point of the wax itself.  So, I wasn’t quite sure which way to go as far as colours were concerned although I did want to add them for photographic reproduction.  I wanted to take some pics to post up for you all to view.

So, at the moment the jury is out on colour.  I may be brave to try adding it once I have tried paraffin wax au natural.

I looked up the nearest craft/hobby store and made my mind up that Alex and I were going to pay a visit.  We checked on the Internet and there was a superstore a short drive away from us.  We drove to the store and I was as giddy as a kipper when I got there.  It was just like Christmas.

We had never been in this hobby store before, it was bloody huge.  We walked past little old ladies selecting coloured card and shiny things to sick on to homemade cards.  Children selecting coloured squares of felt with their mother, something to keep them quiet during the Summer break.  Women selecting silk flowers to arrange in a display.

Meantime Alex and I were walking between the isles seeking out our latest kinky purchase, it felt a little bit naughty and I was wearing a smile.  All those people innocently choosing their crafting materials and we were there with our minds focused on the illicit act of pouring warm wax all over my bare breast and watching it run down them, slowly solidifying.  I’ll have to move on, I just felt a slight tingle down there.  😉

We walked past isles with paint, knitting materials…I know wool!  Lol  bolts of cloth, artists stamps, papers and the like but no sign of any candle making paraphernalia.  Then I spotted some candle making kits and glass painting kits, surely we were getting closer to our quarry.  It couldn’t be long before we are on the components section, where you can buy in bulk to make lots of candles.

And after all we were now nearing the back of the store.  The place where all the naughty and secretive craft supplies hang out.  🙂  As we came closer to the back wall of the store…nothing!  Absolutely nothing.  A kit wasn’t going to be nearly enough wax to play with and where were the crock pots to melt it in?  Sorry, almost forgot where I was then.  This was a craft store not a sex store.

I was so excited at the prospect of purchasing a huge block of wax and driving off home with it but we couldn’t find it and frustration was beginning to set in for both of us.  Alex walked over to a passing assistant and asked him if they sold paraffin wax.

I couldn’t believe his reply, “we don’t but you may be able to buy it online from somewhere”.

Bugger, bugger, bugger…

  1. just a tiny obstacle in the way….before your wax play…lol.

  2. Auggghhhh ! frustrating, Suze !

    It sounds like you were in a ‘Tall Mouse’ store !

    It made me laught to think of you two on your naughty errand among all the mommy-homemakers ! Adds to the spice somehow !

    Hope you have a good Tuesday, and find what you want online !

    Sincerely,
    Loving Annie

  3. I don’t have a clue about the UK, but here in the states you can get paraffin wax at any store that sells home canning supplies.

    Hope that you find what need to make your fantasy come true 😉

  4. I agree, you use parrafin wax to seal the tops of jars of jelly and jam. Most grocery stores sell it here in the states along with stores like wal-mart, target, etc.

    Buying it online to me would be expensive on shipping… if you can’t find any let me know and we’ll find out how much it will cost for me to ship you some. The wax itself is cheap cheap cheap!

  5. you might not need to buy online… beauty product retailers stock paraffin wax. Sally’s is the one that springs to mind, though you might have to check if theres one near you.

  6. Suze,

    Seriously, from doing wax play a lot with sol, the absolute best candles to use are those cheap long white ones from the supermarket, you know the type – we are all supposed to have a packet somewhere in the house in case of blackouts! They are neither perfumed nor coloured, and the long length means you can control the drips onto the skin better.

    These are great to start. When you graduate up to wanting a great area covered with wax, again I use something very simple: plain, cheap tea light candles.

    While I indulge with the drips from the long white candles I let several tea lights burn. When they have completely liquified in their little metal container I remove the wick’s metal base with tweezers and then use the tweezers to pick up the entire container, which I then pour over sol.

    If you prefer you can take the tea light out of the metal container, and cut off the metal wick base prior to lighting it, then place it in another container that won’t get hot. I sometimes do that when I want several tea lights worth of wax! But I find the tweezers work well.

    I’m sure you know from MDS to start high with the drips, bringing the candle closer to the body once you are tolerating the wax well. Coloured candles, I agree, its up to individual candles. I sometimes use red ones on sol. As long as you stick with parraffin and avoid bees wax you can have lots of fun.

    Enjoy!

  7. Mrs Zig, I would love to play with you one day!

    DP, tingly is good… 😉

    Miss U, it’s a good job I’m a patient girl.

    Lustdemon, you bet, I’m going to get some pics for the blog.

    Annie, I think that is the thrill, doing naughty shopping in a household store. The last time we did that it was for my red collar…

    JJ, I wish we had a canning supply store, we don’t have them over here. It would make life so much easier. Lol

    Kitty, we have Wal-Mart over here now, I need to check it out.

    EW, thanks for the tip, it would be quicker to visit a store than order online.

    Mistress160, thanks so much for the advice, I think I will need to build up to the tea lights but a great idea. I’ve been advised that a crockpot is useful for heating the wax too. I now know what I would like for a Christmas present. Lol
